      I know it isnt for everyone, but i decided to have the lips on my rs-gt’s powdercoated in chameleon. In my defense, they were beat to hell when i bought them. I re-rounded them, sanded and polished, then didnt like the final output and decided id try this or send them to Paul at EW. On the OG, they look awesome to me

          What camber settings do you need to run for ET28? Did you need or do you have camber plates? I am researching TE37s and trying to figure out what I need to make them fit.

            Hmm I guess I never posted my new set

            OE CSL w/ 235/265 MPS4s

            15mm front, 5mm rear spacer (10mm will just kiss at the rear, so I have to dial out the toe-in)

              Here are a few of my car...

              CSL/ZCP 19" reps 19x8.5 +44 245 front and 18x9.5 +27 265 rear with a 12mm front spacer




              Work Emotion T7R 18x9.5 +12 235/35 and 18x10.5" +12 275/30 in the rear. No spacer needed obvs, super-aggressive fitment.




              Rays Gram Lights 57CR 18x9.5 +38 265/35 square. 12mm spacer front and rear. I ordered a larger rear spacer to push the rear out a bit more and a smaller front to remove some poke. Don't think I can go much less than a 10mm front spacer because the tire will rub on my suspensions height adjustable coil mount - if I dropped to a 6" spring instead of a 7" spring would give me another 10-15mm of space.






              Not sure I'm 100% sold on my Gram Lights yet - I really like the color and wheel design though, plus they're really light. I think an 18x10 +22 rear would look better/fit better than the 9.5 +38 for sure but it would be a custom order from Rays. We'll see how much I like the style and perhaps I'll order a custom rear set.

                  You should be able to fit them with stock specs. Before I got coils/camber plates, I was at -1.7 degrees camber and it was fine 👍🏼

                    What valve stem are you using?

                        No idea, just typical black rubber.

                            thanks! I was going by the Apex wheel fitment guide which states:

                            Front & Rear: 18x9.5” ET28 with 265/35-18 tires or 275/35-18
                            • 265/35-18 requires at least -2.5 degrees of front camber.
                            And I don't think I can get -2.5 degrees of camber without plates.
